Question

What is the length of MN?

Round to the nearest tenth of a unit.

??? Units

Answer 1

8.5

Explanation:

Explanation:

The length of a segment can be found from its end coordinates by using the distance formula:

d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

d = √((8 -2)² +(4 -(-2))²) = √(6² +6²) = √72

d ≈ 8.485 ≈ 8.5

The length of MN is about 8.5 units.

Answer 2

8.5

Explanation:

The length of a segment can be found from its end coordinates by using the distance formula:

d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

d = √((8 -2)² +(4 -(-2))²) = √(6² +6²) = √72

d ≈ 8.485 ≈ 8.5

The length of MN is about 8.5 units.
